Somebody try getting me into classical music. Bach and whatnot.
Probably the only genre (however wide spread) that I really have no knowledge of. It would also enable me to post something in the "Recommended to me thread"
It's far more widespread than any other genre in existence, since it stretches over several centuries. I like to start people off with piano music since it's not too daunting. How about Felix Mendelssohn's "Songs Without Words", op. 19, No. 1, composed in 1829.
